A plane EM wave is propagating along direction. It has a wavelength of . If electric field is in direction with the maximum magnitude of , the equation for magnetic field is:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Option B () is correct because it represents the magnetic field component of the EM wave, calculated using the relationship between electric and magnetic field amplitudes and the wave's propagation characteristics.

Statement I: Sound waves are not electromagnetic waves.
Statement II: Sound waves require a material medium for propagation. For a plane electromagnetic wave propagating in x-direction, which one of the following combination gives the correct possible directions for electric field and magnetic field respectively? Assertion: The relative velocity of two photons travelling in opposite directions is the velocity of light.
Reason: The rest mass of photon is zero Intensity of electromagnetic wave will be The rms value of the electric field of the light coming from the Sun is . The average total energy density of the electromagnetic wave is Methane is a greenhouse gas because
